This is a summary, & it does not accompany the official

"It Didn't Start with You" by Mark Wolynn explores the idea that mental and physical health issues like depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and phobias may not solely stem from our own life experiences or brain chemistry but can be inherited from our ancestors. Drawing on scientific research, including the work of experts like Rachel Yehuda and Bessel van der Kolk, the book shows how trauma can be passed down through generations, even when the original trauma source is long gone or forgotten. Mark Wolynn, a pioneer in the field of inherited family trauma, offers the Core Language Approach, a practical method for uncovering and addressing these hidden emotional legacies. The book includes diagnostic self-inventories, techniques for creating family trees, and tools like visualization and active imagination to facilitate healing and reconnection. "It Didn't Start With You" provides a transformative approach to resolving deep-seated issues that traditional therapy or medications may not fully address.
